Title: Index Card Challenge
Category: ETC
Today’s Challenge: Using only an index card and scissors find a way to cut your index card so you can fit your entire body through it.
Teamwork Rubric Focus (organization):
My goal for organization/planning today within my team is… set up a simple plan and not argue with my group
My Individual Plan I will cut the card into strips and make the hole wide enough for someone in my group to fit through it
Why I think my plan will be successful:
Our Group’s Plan
We chose this plan because…it was the most simple
Possible challenges that may come up during construction…the paper strips breaking.
Each team member will be responsible for …making each strip
After the Build
Our design worked well because… well we did not finish in time because the strips broke
This activity was challenging because… our strips kept breaking
This activity was comfortable because…. it was simple and easy (once we agreed on a idea)
I met my teamwork organization/planning goal by…figuring out a plan that was not hard or relay easy
A strength of my team was…. not arguing on whose plan was better
An area of growth for my team is… to not spend so much time talking about our plan and actually do the work.
For our next challenge, my new teamwork organization/planning goal for myself is…. to think of a plan that does not need to end with someones idea left out.
I thought your group had a great idea, even if it did end up falling apart! I also love your goal for next time. I think it is so awesome that you want to make sure you do not leave out any group members idea. Continue to work on adding even more detail to your responses. For example, how was this challenge simple and easy?
